Summary: Redefining Sleep Time
Comment: This review is by no means a technical review. This book is required reading for a supervision course that I am taking. While I'm sure that the author was trying very hard to convey a message, and to some he may have succeeded, he leaves out one very compelling reason for reading a textbook.....we read, not to sleep, but to learn. Selling a book is hard enough to do, so I understand the desire to make the title "times" and "keyword" relivent, however..... this book is truely a sleeper. The 8 Action options (2 pages per chapter) are repeated for each scenario that the author portrays making his ideology difficult, at best, to follow. From jellybeans to juggling complexity, mix in a few dinasaur like words (please forgive me for I have only a high school education along with 25 years of work experience), like the word "gleaning" (to devour every last crumb) there are more. My highlighted notes and three key topics per chapter (requirements for course completion) will be difficult to attain. If I could just stay awak..zzzzzzzzzzzzz. If it means anything to you, and it shouldn't according to the book, I am a white, middle class ~$40-60,000/year (Combined wife/husband income), middle aged man with a son and three daughters (all teenagers), and I have dealt with a diverse workforce (US Army) and have a very good Indian (India) friend (Vivik) that I have attended church with (His Hindu church). I cherish diversity but currently work in a 99.8% white but very ethnically diverse workforce of ~600 individuals (over 50% male). If my environment has tarnished your view of my review, then surely, the author has not reached his intended audience. I suggest that you read "The Lexus and The Olive Tree" instead.
